- MARIA ALEXANDRA (10/5): - The room was very clean, at about 3-4 minutes from Ponte Vecchio and right next to Palazzo Pitti, with a lot of restaurants, coffee shops and souvenirs shops. Being on a side street was perfecf because it was quite quiet. Lucia was very nice and helpful. The only con I could find it’s that it didn’t have a flat iron so I had to take a steamer in my luggage that took a lot of space.
- Guest (10/5): Perfect location - Location was so good and the comfort was great. Nothing really.
- Anders Georg (10/5): Helt super for par som vil utforske Firenze - Koselig liten leilighet meget sentralt i Firenze med gåavstand til alt du vil se. Vi gikk også frem og tilbake fra toget som går til og fra flyplassen. God airconditioning og bra wifi var det også til å se film på kveldene. Vi kommer definitivt til å sjekke tilgjengelighet her for vår neste reise til Firenze. Ingen ting!
- Margaret (10/5): The attention to detail in both provisions and comfort were much appreciated - It was a great location, easy to access, very comfortable and very well equipped Really liked it all
- Luisella. (9/5): Delizioso nido, centrale e molto curato. - Posizione decisamente centrale e comoda per ogni destinazione, l'appartamento è fresco anche con un calore esterno sopra la media e dotato di tutto quel che serve per un ottimo soggiorno. Pulitissimo e curato in ogni dettaglio, funzionale e silenzioso. La proprietaria è gentilissima e attenta alla qualità del soggiorno! Due piani di scale....ma ho apprezzato che fosse, con molta correttezza, indicato sulla descrizione della stanza. Sono dettagli spesso evitati..
- Nicolai (5/5): Good location but extremely tight quarters! - Location was fantastic right by the Ponte Vecchio. Two flights of very narrow staircase with high stairs and poorly lit. Very small space for two people with two large suitcases. Internet was very bad. I needed it for work and had to run around to cafe’s to use their internet. No internet after 4:30pm. Very small shower. I had to open the doors to bend down to pick up the soap! A bit funny that! Aircon could barely keep up with extremely hot conditions. Host did offer a refund and also brought us a fan that helped a lot.
- Fabio (10/5): Relaxed stay at the Nido - Very intimate and confortable , close to Ponte Vecchio and city center, very quiet though right downtown, Giulia very kind and helpful.
- Mahek (9/5): Lovely house with a lovely host in a beautiful location - Location was simply amazing. The host was very sweet to let us keep our luggage till late evening after we checked out. The apartment is on 2nd storey with no lift in the building. Climbing the flight of stairs with luggage is difficult.
- Blagoja (10/5): Lovely apartement on the second floor, in a great neighboorhood. Gracious Hosts - Location close to historic center
- Molly (9/5): A lovely stay on the best side of Florence - Location, self catering, comfy bed, had everything we needed :) The wifi wasn’t reliable but would work perfectly late at night and early morning. The shower was overflowing pretty rapidly.
- Epameinondas (8/5): Very good -
- Ying (6/5): Very small room. Needs to go up lots of stairs, be careful if you have big luggage. - Location is good
- Jacob (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lynn (9/5): Super comfortable in a great location, lovely host - Charming well equipped apartment!!
Fabulous location!
Easy to work/communicate with
- Angie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tanja (9/5): Superb - The location is perfect and the host was kind enough to let us check in earlier which was nice so we didnt have to walk around with our luggage. The place has charm, its small but given you are exploring florence most of the time I think its fine.
- Kristine (8/5): Very good -
- Robyn (10/5): Our stay was fantastic! It was near everything especially for all of our walking we did. -
- Hikaru (10/5): Exceptional - Iron and small ironing board would be useful.
- David-adrianna (8/5): We enjoyed our stay and appreciated all the small details and touches that came with this property but probably was too - Beautiful small room in a lovely area of Florence near Pitti Palace. Room very small perfect for a single night or one person.
- Luba (8/5): Cute little apartment, in a great location. I would recommend to anyone who wants to experience the authentic old city o - Its location was exceptional, eveything was walking distance and close. No need for public transportation at any point during our 3 nights stay!
The bed was comfortable and big, the kitchen was appreciated.
The host was available for any questions and recommendations. For starters, we knew that there would be a lot of stairs. However, for reference purposes, please note that the stairs are quite narrow, uneven, and steep. But that’s a given since the building is quite old!
The kitchen was missing quite a a lot of tools, such as a cutting board, proper kitchen knives, etc.
The shower was not bad, however it did not drain properly even after taking off the cover.
- Vivien (7/5): A welcome break in a beautiful city. - The host Lucia went to a lot of trouble to show us everything. It was very clean . The beds were comfortable. It was wonderful to stay in this medieval part of Florence close to all the main sights. There are very steep stairs up to the apartment.
- Georgia (8/5): Enjoyed our stay in Florence! - Check in experience, kindness and responsiveness of host, super clean apartment and great central location (next to Piti Pallace and 5-10 min walk to main attractions) 2 floors without elevator and steep stairs was a bit of a challenge with the suitcases. Wifi connection in the apartment was not very good. Besides these, the rest was great!
- Nadiye (10/5): Exceptional - Great location, very nice host
- Maurice (10/5): Exceptional -
- Anna (9/5): Superb -
- Leasa (7/5): Good - Convenient to Main events Steps
- Suemal (10/5): Great location in central Florence. - There was everything we needed and it was beautifully presented. The small space is used very effectively. Location is amazing, just steps from the Ponte Vecchio but down a small side street which is lovely and peaceful after the crowds There was nothing we didn't like but I would just caution people against bringing large suitcases as the steps to the apartment are quite narrow and steep.
- Marie (1/5): will never return to Florence, although the Owner of the building g and the lady who looked after the apartment we so ki - clean and good location We were BROKEN into and were robbed. spent 2 hours at the Police station to get a Police Report.
but what was very upsetting was they must of had a Key as there was no damage to the doors two doors one from the street up to the 4th floor then another dead locked door into our small apartment.
- Mira (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing the attention to details was perfect.
Lucia was so nice also .
Definitly will come back
- Sara (9/5): Superb - Very cosy and clean apartment. It had all facilities that you could need. Very well located, good experience!!
- Hannah (10/5): Exceptional -
- Amit (7/5): Charming apartment in Florence city center - Great location close to the Pitti Palace, Pont Vecchio etc. The apartment was very clean, and has basic amenities to make breakfast etc. Their are nice eateries in the neighborhood too. Mattress could have been comfier. Beware since its an old building with narrow stairs, its difficult to take heavy suitcases to the apartment.
- Hanna (9/5): Superb - The location of the apartment is amazing. Our host, Lucia, was very helpful and the self check-in was easy ande clearly explained. She left a little blackbook for us containing very useful information from taxi numbers to amazing restaurant recommendations. I want to mention that we went to two of the recommended restaurants and we were pleasantly surprised. Overall the studio was great, small but cosy. The bathroom was small but clean and we had all the amenities necessary.
- Farid (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ian (8/5): Very good -
- Václava (9/5): Superb -
- Alexandra (9/5): Nice :) - 1. The location was excellent, very close to the most important atractions everyone has on their list when they plan to visit Florence. Also, a lot of restaurants nearby, some of them very good. Next to Palazzo Pitti, a wonderful view every morning when you go out to grab a cup of coffee to start your day.
About 6 min to Uffizi Gallery and Museo Galileo (it’s next to Uffizi), 15 min to Accademia Gallery, 7 min to Palazzo Vechio and Torre di Arnolfo, about 5 min to Boboli Gardens (but it has many entrances and ways of access so it depends on where you choose to start from); 20 min to Piazzale Michelangelo.
Best pizza is just on the way to Boboli Gardens- Toto atto Pizzeria, and also Osteria Le Pietre has good food (both pizza and pasta), Ristorante Caffe Pitti also a nice choice.
2. Very authentic, exactly to match the real florentin life, it takes you back in time which is perfect.
3. Very cozy and homey, with all the things and furnishings you need to make your stay comfortable. Exactly what you need if you plan to have a vacation where all you do is visit the town all day, and come home to rest and plan your next day.
4. The host was nice, we kept in contact both inside the booking app and on whatsapp, providing solutions for any problems you may encounter. And yes, the english isn’t perfect, but my italian isn’t perfect either (so stop criticising that as I’ve seen some of you have) ; you have to appreciate the patience and thoroughness when trying to explain the important things regarding our stay and how people connect regardless of language barriers. :)
5. Yes there is a power limit (regarding the amount of electricity one can consume per day) but that was perfectly fine. With a little bit of wisdom, there isn’t such a big restriction, no need to make a big fuss about it. You just have to be self conscious and to not let every light bulb and every appliance run at the same time without paying attention. It was a little bit cold at night and early in the morning, but we managed to stay warm with the air conditioning and the heating option, which was okay. So it was manageable after all. :) Also it depends on the season and the weather on that day.
- Annamaria (10/5): Excellent stay in a great area (2 mins to Pitti Palace!) - Very clean, super comfortable bed, cozy, excellent location! The kitchen corner was well equipped & clean,had all we needed (although we didn't cook,just had coffee & cheese haha,), the fridge was the standard European small fridge plenty enough for us.
We also had plenty of towels, shampoo, conditioner etc.
Lucia was wonderful! She waited for us at the apartment even though we were slightly late due to needing to return the car to Hertz.
By the way,a reminder: if you're renting a car you canNOT go into the ZTL (Zona Traffico Limitato) *unless* you're going directly to the car rental company to leave the car with them (the return the car)! The fine is hefty even if you just turn around within meters of the ZTL display sign!
The apartment is on the 3rd floor (North American) / 2nd floor European way of counting, with no elevator. Not a problem, just good to know in case someone has mobility issues. The airconditioner (we used it for heat in March) was noisy - we used ear plugs so no problem.
The windows were very thin,you could hear the noises from the street - use earplugs.
The windows seemed to be slightly thin or something, it got cold fairly quickly after stopping the heating of the apartment but it wasn't really a problem.
- Chu (9/5): Superb -
- Jennifer (5/5): Passable - It is well located. .the apartment is clean and neat. Difficult to arrange drop off off luggage.
The access to the apartment is restrictive. The stairs are difficult to ascend without luggage and very difficult with luggage. The advert for the apartment needs to highlight that steps are narrow and steep to assend. The steps are not even sized and differ in hight. It is not quite and loud noise late night to early in the morning. Information - ENGLISH is very poor. Not sure how how property has a rating of 9.6 ??
- Charlotte (6/5): the apartment was extremely clean, and the host very flexible on the arrival time :) -
- Ana (9/5): excellent - cozy, cute, confortable, good location

- Ilona (10/5): A very nice, clean and comfy small place for a couple. - A cozy small apartment just in the center of Florence Medieval City. Very clean, very good equipped bathroom,
the nice and small kitchen area is also well equipped. Quiet and friendly place. Near to cafes and restaurants. Very close to Arno bridges and just in front of Pitty Palace
- Olena (10/5): highly recommended - Great apartment, very authentic and quiet. Amazing how everything in this relatively small apartment is thought through, many small details which make it very comfortable and homey. There were lots of things for cooking, and many shelves to place cloth and stuff. In the bathroom, there was everything one might need, even pads! The owner also gave us a list of local restaurants. Overall, our stay in this apartment was such a great experience! Highly recommended
- Isabelle (8/5): Very good -
- Никита (9/5): Superb -
